That Old Martin Guitar, written by Ed Gowens Echota Records has been on the many Independant Chart for many years hitting the # 1 spot on many Radio Stations .  I first heard this song when Ed sent it to me and I was very impressed by the lyrics and the music to it, I love this song, I can honestly say this is my signature song. When people hear this song they tell me how much it means to them to listen to great traditional music and how smooth the song is. Ed Gowens is a fantastic songwriter and an inspiration to what country music is all about.


Donna Ray is a Singer/Songwriter herself. Taking a story an making a song out of it puts a real good aspect in what she loves to do. There are many songs that she have written in the past, Songs such as Carrying Memories and Memories of Mamo  Going To Carolina, The Gooduns Getting Better, that have already been heard on numerous stations. But one song Donna has loved that she has written is Broken Dreams Produced by Ed Gowens Tim Hicks, She wrote the song about her own life experience of love at one time, A failed marraige and how she went back to relive her experience in her mind and found herself forgetting the past. . Now signed Echota Records Calhoun Georgia and to Stardust Records out of Nashville who has made it their mission that the rest of The World gets to know Donna Ray and her music.
